55g sump design need advice...

[MikeP]

Nice work on sketch up Dave! That sump I designed is the first time I used it. I'm sure it would have turned out better if I would have read the instructions, I just started clicking on stuff. To reply to kari, yes some of that stuff I thought of some of it I didn't so thanks. How do I determine my 'flow' the return and the overflow have bulkheads that measure 1.25 inches and the pump is a sequence snapper external which is rated for 2500 gph. Does this sound alright? If I space the baffles 1" apart will that be ok? It sounds like the chamber with the skimmer should be the smallest and I should split the rest of the space between fuge and return?

Thanks for everything so far
